U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday urged the Washington Capitals to come to the White House to celebrate their Stanley Cup championship but said the victor of the National Basketball Association title would not be invited. When told of LeBron's comments, Curry said that he agreed players from either team won't want an invite. "No, I didn't invite Lebron James and I didn't invite Steph Curry".

Trump pointed out that he's had several championship teams at the White House, including the NFL's New England Patriots and the NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins. When the Golden State Warriors won the championship last year, he denied the invitation to go last year.

"I'm not surprised. It's typical of him", James, the Cleveland star, said Tuesday of Trump's decision to cancel. "I know whoever wins this series, us or Golden State, no one wants an invite". "It won't be Golden State or Cleveland going".

The Warriors clinched back-to-back championships Friday night by defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers 108-85, completing a four-game sweep in the NBA Finals. We're not going to invite either team,"Trump said to reporters".
